The BMW i8 is a plug-in hybrid sports car developed by BMW. The i8 is part of BMW's electric fleet "Project i" being marketed as a new sub-brand, BMW i. The 2015 model year BMW i8 has a 7.1 kWh lithium-ion battery pack that delivers an all-electric range of {{convert|37|km|abbr=on}} under the New European Driving Cycle. Under the United States Environmental Protection Agency cycle, the range in EV mode is {{convert|15|mi|abbr=on|order=flip}} with a small amount of gasoline consumption. Its design is heavily influenced by the BMW M1 Homage concept car, which in turn pays homage to BMW's last production mid-engined sports car prior to the i8: the BMW M1.

The BMW i8 can accelerate from a dead-stop to {{convert|100|km/h|0|abbr=on}} in 4.4 seconds[7][8] and has an electronic limited top speed of 250 km/h (155 mph). The BMW i8 has a fuel efficiency of {{Convert|2.1|L/100 km|abbr=on|1}} under the NEDC test with carbon emissions of 49 g/km. The EPA rated the i8 combined fuel economy at 76 MPGe (3.1 L gasoline equivalent/100 km; 91 mpg-imp gasoline equivalent) and 29 miles per gallon (6.7L) when running in pure gasoline mode (after the battery is drained empty).

The initial turbodiesel concept car was unveiled at the 2009 International Motor Show Germany. The production version of the BMW i8 was unveiled at the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show. The i8 was released in Germany in June 2014.[9] Deliveries to retail customers in the U.S. began in August 2014. By early November 2016 global sales since mid-2014 totaled more than 10,000 BMW i8s, making the i8 the world's top selling plug-in electrified sports car. The top selling markets are the United States, the United Kingdom and Germany.

History

First introduced as the Concept Vision EfficientDynamics, the i8 is part of BMW's "Project i" and it is being marketed as a new brand, BMW i, sold separately from BMW or Mini. The BMW i3, launched for retail customers in Europe in the fourth quarter of 2013, was the first model of the i brand available in the market, and it was followed by the i8, released in Germany in June 2014 as a 2015 model year. Other i models are expected to follow.[10][21][11]

The initial turbodiesel concept car was unveiled at the 2009 International Motor Show Germany,[12] In 2010, BMW announced the mass production of the Vision EfficientDynamics concept in Leipzig beginning in 2013 as the BMW i8.[24] The BMW i8 gasoline-powered concept car destined for production was unveiled at the 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show.[13] The production version of the BMW i8 was unveiled at the 2013 International Motor Show Germany.[14] The following are the concept and pre-production models developed by BMW that preceded the production version.

BMW Vision EfficientDynamics (2009)

BMW Vision EfficientDynamics concept car is a plug-in hybrid with a three cylinder turbo-diesel engine.[12] Additionally, there are two electric motors with {{Convert|139|hp|0|abbr=on}}. It allows an acceleration to {{Convert|100|km/h|abbr=on}} in 4.8 seconds and an electronically limited top speed of {{Convert|250|km/h|abbr=on|sigfig=3}}.[24]

According to BMW, the average fuel consumption in the EU test cycle (KV01) is 3.76 liters/100 kilometers, (75.1 mpg imp), and has a carbon dioxide emission rating of 99 grams per kilometer (1,3 l/100 km and 33g CO2/kabelham ; EU-PHEV ECE-R101). The estimated all-electric range is {{Convert|50|km|abbr=on}}, and the 24-liter petrol tank extends the total vehicle range to up to {{Convert|700|km|abbr=on}}.[15] The lightweight chassis is made mainly from aluminum. The windshield, top, doors and fenders are made from polycarbonate glass, with the body having a drag coefficient of 0.22.[16][17]

The designers of the BMW Vision EfficientDynamics concept were Mario Majdandzic for the exterior and Jochen Paesen for the interior.[18]

The vehicle was unveiled in 2009 International Motor Show Germany,[19][20] followed by Auto China 2010.[21]

BMW i8 Concept (2011)

BMW i8 Concept plug-in hybrid electric vehicle includes an electric motor located in the front axle powering the front wheels rated {{convert|96|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} and {{convert|250|Nm|lbft|0|abbr=on}}, a turbocharged 1.5-liter 3-cylinder gasoline engine driving rear wheels rated {{convert|164|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} and {{convert|300|Nm|lbft|0|abbr=on}} of torque, with combined output of {{convert|260|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} and {{convert|550|Nm|lbft|0|abbr=on}}, a {{convert|7.2|kWh|abbr=on}} lithium-ion battery pack that allows an all-electric range of {{convert|35|km|abbr=on}}. All four wheels provide regenerative braking. The location of the battery pack in the energy tunnel gives the vehicle a low centre of gravity, enhancing its dynamics. Its top speed is electronically limited to {{convert|250|km/h|abbr=on|sigfig=3}} and is expected to go from 0 to 100 km/h (0 to 60 mph) in 4.6 seconds. Under normal driving conditions the i8 is expected to deliver {{convert|80|mpgus|abbr=on}} under the European cycle. A full charge of the battery will take less than 2 hours using 220 V.[13][22] The positioning of the motor and engine over the axles results in optimum 50/50 weight distribution.[22][23][24]

The vehicle was unveiled at the 2011 International Motor Show Germany, followed by CENTER 548 in New York City,[25] 42nd Tokyo Motor Show 2011,[26] 82nd Geneva Motor Show 2012,[27] BMW i Born Electric Tour at the Palazzo delle Esposizioni at Via Nazionale 194 in Rome,[28] Auto Shanghai 2013.[29]

This concept car was featured in the film Impossible – Ghost Protocol.

BMW i8 Concept Spyder (2012)

The BMW i8 Concept Spyder included a slightly shorter wheelbase and overall length over the BMW i8 Concept, carbon-fibre-reinforced plastic (CFRP) Life module, drive modules made primarily from aluminium components, interlocking of surfaces and lines, 8.8-inch (22.4 cm) screen display, off-white outer layer, orange tone naturally tanned leather upholstery.[30]

The vehicle was unveiled in Auto China 2012 in Beijing[31] and won Concept Car of the Year,[32][33][34] followed by 83rd Geneva International Motor Show 2013.[35] The designer of the BMW i8 Concept Spyder was Richard Kim.[6][36]

BMW i8 coupe prototype (2013)

The design of the BMW i8 coupe prototype was based on the BMW i8 Concept. The BMW i8 prototype has an average fuel efficiency of less than {{Convert|2.5|L/100 km|abbr=on|1}} under the New European Driving Cycle with carbon emissions of less than 59 g/km. The i8 with its carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) passenger cell lightweight, aerodynamically optimized body, and BMW eDrive technology offers the dynamic performance of a sports car, with an expected 0–100 km/h (0-62 mph) sprint time of less than 4.5 seconds using both power sources. The plug-in hybrid system of the BMW i8 comprises a three-cylinder, 1.5-liter BMW TwinPower turbo gasoline engine combined with BMW eDrive technology used in the BMW i3 and develops maximum power of {{convert|170|kW|0|abbr=on}}. The BMW i8 is the first BMW production model to be powered by a three-cylinder gasoline engine and the resulting specific output of {{convert|115|kW|hp|abbr=on}} per liter of displacement is on a par with high-performance sports car engines and is the highest of any engine produced by the BMW Group.[1]

The BMW i8's second power source is a hybrid synchronous electric motor specially developed and produced by the BMW Group for BMW i. The electric motor develops maximum power of 131 hp (96 kW) and produces its maximum torque of around {{convert|320|Nm|0|abbr=on}} from standstill. Typical of an electric motor, responsive power is instantly available when starting and this continues into the higher load ranges. As well as providing a power boost to assist the gasoline engine during acceleration, the electric motor can also power the vehicle by itself. Top speed in electric mode is approximately {{Convert|120|km/h|abbr=on}}, with a maximum driving range of up to {{Convert|35|km|abbr=on}}. Linear acceleration is maintained even at higher speeds since the interplay between the two power sources efficiently absorbs any power flow interruptions when shifting gears. The model-specific version of the high-voltage 7.2 lithium-ion battery has a liquid cooling system and can be recharged at a conventional household power socket, at a BMW i Wallbox or at a public charging station. In the US a full recharge takes approximately 3.5 hours from a conventional 120 V, 12 amp household circuit or approximately 1.5 hours from a 220 V Level 2 charger.[1][37]

The driver can also select several driving modes: SPORT, COMFORT and ECO PRO. Using the gear selector, the driver can either select position D for automated gear selection or can switch to SPORT mode. SPORT mode offers manual gear selection and at the same time switches to very sporty drive and suspension settings. In SPORT mode, the engine and electric motor deliver extra performance, accelerator response is faster and the power boost from the electric motor is maximized. And to keep the battery topped up, SPORT mode also activates maximum energy recuperation during overrun and braking as the electric motor's generator function, which recharges the battery using kinetic energy, switches to a more powerful setting. The Driving Experience Control switch on the center console offers a choice of two settings. On starting, COMFORT mode is activated, which offers a balance between sporty performance and fuel efficiency, with unrestricted access to all convenience functions. Alternatively, the ECO PRO mode can be engaged, which, on the BMW i8 as on other models, supports an efficiency-optimized driving style. On this mode the powertrain controller coordinates the cooperation between the gasoline engine and the electric motor for maximum fuel economy. On deceleration, the intelligent energy management system automatically decides, in line with the driving situation and vehicle status, whether to recuperate braking energy or to coast with the powertrain disengaged. At the same time, ECO PRO mode also programs electrical convenience functions such as the air conditioning, seat heating and heated mirrors to operate at minimum power consumption, but without compromising safety. The maximum driving range of the BMW i8 on a full fuel tank and with a fully charged battery is more than {{Convert|500|km|abbr=on}} in COMFORT mode, which can be increased by up to 20% in ECO PRO mode. The BMW i8's ECO PRO mode can also be used during all-electric operation. The vehicle is then powered solely by the electric motor. Only if the battery charge drops below a given level, or under sudden intense throttle application such as kickdown, is the internal combustion engine automatically activated.

The vehicle was unveiled in BMW Group's Miramas test track in France.[38][39]

The i8 has a vehicle weight of {{Convert|1,485|kg|lb|abbr=on}} (DIN kerb weight) and a low drag coefficient (Cd) of 0.26. In all-electric mode the BMW i8 has a top speed of {{Convert|120|km/h|abbr=on}}. In Sport mode the i8 delivers a mid-range acceleration from 80 to 120 km/h (50 to 75 mph) in 2.6 seconds. The electronically controlled top speed is {{convert|250|kph|abbr=on|sigfig=3}}.[1]

Range and fuel economy

The production i8 has a 7.1 kWh lithium-ion battery pack with a usable capacity of 5.2 kWh and intelligent energy management that delivers an all-electric range of {{convert|37|km|abbr=on}} under the NEDC cycle. Under the EPA cycle, the range in EV mode is {{convert|15|mi|abbr=on}}, with a gasoline consumption of 0.1 gallons per 100 mi, and as a result, EPA's all-electric range is zero. The total range is {{Convert|330|mi|abbr=on}}.[11]

The production version has a fuel efficiency of {{Convert|2.1|L/100 km|abbr=on|1}} under the NEDC test with carbon emissions of 49 g/km.[1] Under EPA cycle, the i8 combined fuel economy in EV mode was rated 76 equivalent (MPG-equivalent) (3.1 L gasoline equivalent/100 km; 91 mpg-imp gasoline equivalent), with an energy consumption of 43 kW-hrs/100 mi and gasoline consumption of 0.1 gal-US/100 mi. The combined fuel economy when running only with gasoline is {{Convert|28|mpgUS|abbr=on}} for city driving, and {{Convert|29|mpgUS|abbr=on}} in highway.[47][48]

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's 2014 edition of the "Light-Duty Automotive Technology, Carbon Dioxide Emissions, and Fuel Economy Trends" introduced utility factors for plug-in hybrids to represent the percentage of miles that will be driven using electricity by an average driver, in electric only or blended modes. The BMW i8 roadster has a utility factor in EV mode of 37%, compared with 83% for the BMW i3 REx, 66% for the Chevrolet Volt, 65% for the Cadillac ELR, 45% for the Ford Energi models, 43% for the McLaren P1, 39% for the Porsche Panamera S E-Hybrid, and 29% for the Toyota Prius PHV.[49]
